First!

Man, you've got to love how many firsts there are in life! Everyday I have at least one, normally much more! For instance, on Saturday I did my first highway driving. My sister, Kim, has her Spring Break this week so we went to go pick her up from Salt Lake City. (We being my cousin, Sarah, and I) and I have to say, quite honestly I don't know that highway driving is more relaxing than city driving, I like driving in the city.

However, it does eat up your gas mileage faster. I get much better gas per gallon driving the highway than I do driving around town.

Another first I had on Saturday was a 4 to 1 wrestling match! It was my sister, Kim, my cousins, Aaron and Sarah, and me all against my big brother Thom! SO MUCH FUN! Needless to say, we won (which perhaps was part of the reason it was so fun) but Thom was such a good sport about it. I mean, when you have one person pinning your right leg, another your left leg, another your right arm, and another your left arm- you really don't have much hope of winning.

Before yesterday I'd never actually been an active participant in Thom Wrestling- I'd always watch Sarah do it and I would just cheer from the sidelines, but yesterday I threw myself right in there for better or for worse, and it was freaking blast!

Firsts are so much fun! Isn't it great to know that there will always be something in this life that you haven't tried yet? And that there will always be something new and exciting! All you have to do is look, and normally not even very far- things are there, right beyond our nose! And it's fantastic!
